Investing for Individuals

Passive Investing

The Steadfast Financial Solutions* model is a passive investment model based on the academic research of U.S. market history. In contrast to chasing performance, "Position" investing, as practiced by Steadfast Financial Solutions, focuses on well-diversified asset allocation and lowered costs in an effort to achieve results over the long-term.

Retirement Planning

The professionals at Dilday and Associates show clients how to structure their finances with investment tools such as traditional retirement accounts, brokerage accounts, and annuities. In addition, we have extensive experience helping clients to establish SEP IRAs and to convert corporate 401K plans so that the client maintains control over investments.

Life Income Generation

One of the many challenging questions people face is how to make their money earn money? With certain products we offer, we have the potential to grow your investments over time. We take pride in the services we offer so that our clients can meet the future feeling prepared.

PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING

The principal risks associated with an investment are fully described in the prospectus in the section called "Principal Risks." The value of an investment will fluctuate based on economic, political, and stock-specific events, and there is a chance you will lose money. Small company stocks may fluctuate more in price than those of large companies. Stocks of non-US companies may also fluctuate due to these factors and expose investors to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. The stocks of companies in emerging markets are subject to additional risks due to the unstable nature of some governments and the small and illiquid nature of their securities markets. The use of derivatives to hedge specific risks may increase expenses, and there is no guarantee that a hedging strategy will work. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
